I am TESTING my new HYBRID CLUB which I have custom built to use for TEEING OFF! This must be the most POWERFUL hybrid club in the WORLD!
If you’re struggling for consistency with drivers and fairway woods off the tee, could this be a golf club hack that could help you?!…

I'm available next week if you need a driver lesson pal 🤣
Something to think about, the swing looks much more smoother and controlled in this vid?
I've been having the same issues Gaz
I was hitting my 3 wood 10 yards further than my Stealth Plus
The solution…..🤔
I've now got a TSR3 with a inch and half shorter shaft and 10 degrees of loft
I can swing harder and find the centre of the face and it goes straighter
👆 – LIKE HOT PHOTO MY SISTER 💑💥d🥰
😂 do people really set their testing up with tailwinds 😂
If your tsi3 was working so well……
Get it out of shed and back in bag
I put the callaway apex uw 17 degree in my bag this year and it was the best think I've done all year for when my drivers not on it
I've got an old 14 degree callaway 1 hybrid you can try if you want
I don't know mate, I've been watching you since you started your channel, and part of me thinks you get in your own head too much when you're playing a match, and the rest of the time you're an absolute beast with driver.
You hooked the iron, the driver was never designed for distance, it's a fairway finder. Hit the driver. You hit the driver straight.
Yea Gaz build the confidence with the new hybrid rocket. An get yourself sorted with a proper driver, that one is robbing you of yards even when creamed.
Distance is Confidence ⛳
Very interesting Gaz! Some good numbers! I need to look at the top end of MY bag!
I'm a high handicapper who is having similar problems off the tee which I had last year also and I get inside my own head and over think everything and it all goes wrong. I was thinking of doing something similar and now I will. Thanks Gaz
Cracking experimental video Gaz and I would love to see you take this to the course especially on driver holes that have got it your head
Just a thought, hybrid length low spin shaft and a 12 degree driver. Can you test something like that?
Well done gaz 🏌♂️ 👍
That’s strange that you’re struggling with the Driver considering you have such a nice swing.
I guess it’s just something going on between the two ears?
You’re a good player lacking a bit of confidence with the driver. You’ll get through this period but it’ll take longer the more you tinker. That’s what I think anyway
Gary, you were nailing the PXG driver, so any doubt is inside your head. Just stop doubting yourself and be positive about your real ability. Tinkering is fine, but having a smaller headed club on longer par 4's or par 5's will not solve your problems.
We have all been there. Get thee a 5 wood I think it will be more forgiving than a hydrido lofted so low
Rocket hybrid?Did you not test the Cleveland hywood this spring Gary how would that compare ?
A Taylor Made mini-driver might be an option for you – Mark
I got a Wilson d9 3h and in a comp I hit it just as far or further than the other 3 people who hit driver. As soon as I went to my driver I was spraying everywhere.
Great video GAZ!
🐊🏌🦅🇺🇲👍
I think it's all mental with you Gary. Unlike many of us you have a solid, reliable technique. Just a case of working on feeling good over the ball 👍 Great content as usual mate.
Here you go Gaz… here's your answer. 2021 season I traded up with a friend and got a SIM2 max. The only thing, it had the TM issue Ventus Blue shaft in a 5 flex (5A was rating). I removed the shaft, tipped the driver a bit over an inch, between an inch and 1.5 inches and reinstalled the shaft into the adapter and kept it at that length. The A flex when looking at shaft dynamics is so close to the S flex it's nuts how similar. This is what i have done and my driver is such a great consistent club. Essentially I made myself an autoflex out of a ventus blue.
Don’t forget Gaz I want first refusal on that driver pal👍
That hybrid is going to be a beast in the summer.
Haven't even finished the video and already love it!!!
Nice one Gaz. Put the 1 hybrid in the bag. Use it as your stock go to tee shot and bring out an optimised big dog only as needed when there are obvious benefits. Having a crack at a short par 4 or where you can open the shoulders.
Sort of the same here looking at replacing my 3 wood for an adjustable hybrid around the 17 degree point
It’s all in the head, whatever helps go for it I reckon!
Love the video Gaz. For the last 4/5 years I have used a hybrid off the tee. Handicap down from 22 to 2.5. I have played a bit with the legend that is Sam Sharman who has tried to get me hitting a driver but always gives up once I hit the hybrid goes 225-250 most of the time
You're the expert Gary, but looking at that I'd say the frankenhybrid is no less likely to pull left under pressure than your driver. How about trying the G425 Max? It's really difficult to hit off-line even for garbage players like me. If you knew that all you had to do was waft the club in the vague direction of the ball and it would go 300 yds straight, it would become a self-fulfilling prophecy soon enough and you'd pull it out of the bag for both short par 4s and long, tight par 5s.
confidence is shot, you was hitting it harder last year, smooth but faster. Good luck with the drive forwards
I tried a 16 Hybrid for this purpose and I didn't get the launch angle needed to get distance at my meagre swing speed. I would be better off using a Cleveland Hy-Wood 18 degree as a back up off the tee shot. I tried a 5 wood at 17.5 with a longer shaft ( 3 wood) and found that I went left mostly. Possibly the lie angle effect?
